Biography
Born and raised in Queens, NYC, Allen Wen, aka AW177, is a self-taught artist/designer with a bright and vivid style influenced by Chinese culture, Asian motifs, graffiti and technical illustration. I take these concepts and mix them together to create a colorful and festive, yet powerful and emotional feel to my work.
